Descriptive Problem Summary: Animating an image with maptext causes a crash

Numbered Steps to Reproduce Problem:

Code Snippet (if applicable) to Reproduce Problem:
var/image/D=new('blank.dmi',src)
animate(D,pixel_y=100,time=10)
src<<D


Expected Results: no crash

Actual Results: crashes

Does the problem occur:
Every time? Or how often?every time
In other games?yes
In other user accounts?yes
On other computers?yes

When does the problem NOT occur? -

Did the problem NOT occur in any earlier versions? If so, what was the last version that worked? (Visit http://www.byond.com/download/build to download old versions for testing.)

Workarounds:

Does this happen in a blank project? I often find with things like this that a snippet isn't enough to reproduce. If you have a test case that'd be ideal.
Yes, it happens in a blank project. also it is unrelated to maptext it seems to just happen from the above code snippet
The snippet is not enough to reproduce the problem. Tested this in my test project and it does nothing. I definitely need a test case.

example test case (just a blank project with that code snippet in a verb)

it will crash once the animate is done
The test case isn't crashing for me. Nothing is happening at all.

[edit]
Wait a sec. Is this only happening in 513? Because in 514 I can't get it to happen. I think you might be reporting a bug that was fixed already.

The bug in question is id:2665761.

can confirm the issue doesn't exist on current stable or beta build. you can close this
